How long are your dogs in their crates during the day?

That is so few hours that I wouldn't hesitate to put them int their crates at night but then that might be your answer too. I would only expect a Yorkie to hold it for 4 hours... One thing you can do is put the crates in your room so they are still next to you.

Katie & Suzi both sleep with me. My bedroom door is shut.
I have a picnic sheet on one side of the bed with two peepads on. If they need to go in the night they jump off the bed and use the pee pads. Katie tends to sleep through the night anyway, but Suzi is only 5 months and will jump off to wee or poop.
(I go to bed early (8pm) so for her to last the night until 7.40am is expecting a lot.

I find not feeding them after 5pm and taking their water up
helps.

I have a crate in my bedroom and both sleep in it. They are happy that they are with us in the room but they can't do anything bad. I put up baby gates when I'm not home or they would pee on the rug.
